My Doctor has prescribe to use hydroquinone 4% for 2 months for small patch of hyperpigmentation on skin and come back for review. Is this safe to use for 2 months ? i have read articles on side effects - is it for prolonged use more than 6 months?could you please provide some suggestions? |

Hydroquinone has potential risks albeit those risks are lower with short-term, low/medium strengths use.
See the section of hydroquinone in this article:
